Chapter 1631 Buddha or Devil (End)
"When Tianwai Tian was defeated, they signed a covenant with the major sects in the Central Plains to lock the mountains and rivers. Within twelve years, people from Tianwai Tian could not enter Beili. Now that the twelve-year period is about to expire, they have made such a big move. Who are you? I remember that the covenant to lock the mountains and rivers mentioned a five-year-old hostage." Xiao Se continued.
"Many things are not that complicated. You all think I am a big shot, but in fact I am just a naughty little monk in Hanshui Temple." Wu Xin suddenly interrupted Xiao Se's words.
"Sorry, I was abrupt just now." Xiao Se apologized immediately, and the next moment the scene was silent.
"They are about to die." Shen Fei suddenly said, Wu Xin was stunned for a moment, then reacted and hurriedly pulled the two people in the well up.
"You can tell me now." After pulling the two people up, Wu Xin immediately asked.
"Hero, what do you want us to say, you ask it." The two horse thieves said with a look of collapse.
"Hmph, where are the people you caught today being held?" Wuxin snorted coldly, putting off his embarrassed expression for a moment, and then immediately asked.
"He's held in the dungeon."
"Nonsense, we're asking where the dungeon is?" Xiao Se on the side interrupted.
"The dungeon is there." The two horse thieves rushed to tell the location of the dungeon. The location of the dungeon was not complicated. After all, they were just a group of horse thieves. Even if they had a military background, they were just horse thieves.
"Do you have any masters here?" Wuxin asked again.
"Masters, the big boss is a master, and there is also the second boss. By the way, there was a guest today. The big boss and his people were very respectful to him. He should also be a master. The big boss called him "Young Master."
After thinking for a while, the two horse thieves immediately said so about the master Wuxin asked about. These two were just ordinary horse thieves. They didn't know much about the realm of martial arts for masters, and could only rely on common sense to distinguish masters. The big boss must be the most powerful master, and those who can get his respect are naturally masters.
After all, this is an ancient feudal society with a low literacy rate. Ordinary people cannot expect so much. Don't look at Lei Wujie's naivety. He looks very simple, but if you talk about family background, he is at least nine streets ahead of ordinary people. Don't think about who his parents and sister are.
"Let's go." After knowing where Lei Wujie was imprisoned, Wuxin knocked out two people and hid them. The three of them rushed to the dungeon. Although they met many patrols on the road, they were horse thieves after all, and the patrols were not intensive. In addition, some people were deserting, so the three of them came to the front of the dungeon smoothly.
On the way, Wuxin and Xiaose had a dispute over clothes. Wuxin said that Xiaose's thousand-dollar fur coat was too conspicuous, so he asked him to change into horse thieves' clothes. As a result, Xiaose said that his white monk robe was more conspicuous at night, and then Wuxin stopped talking. The two did not talk about Shen Fei, because Shen Fei's clothes were black, which was just right for moving at night.
"I didn't expect that there are people who are so dedicated."
There are two guards in front of the dungeon. One seems to have fallen asleep, but the other seems to be very alert and has been carefully looking around. Unfortunately, the strength of the two sides is too different, and vigilance is useless. Before he can react, he was knocked unconscious by Wuxin. Similarly, the other sleeping person naturally did not escape. This time Wuxin did not hide them.
This is because the dungeon is located in a remote place after all. Except for the gatekeeper, there is no one else. The patrollers are also far away from here. Looking at the terrain, the patrollers mainly patrol around the center of the camp.
"Lei Wujie, Lei Wujie." Xiao Se laughed and called Lei Wujie's name after entering the dungeon. Although there was light in the dungeon, it was still very dark.
"Xiao Se, Xiao Se, I'm here, you really came to save me." Lei Wujie was very excited after hearing Xiao Se's voice. He immediately came to the door of the prison, stretched out his right hand, and waved to Xiao Se.
"Keep your voice down. Hmm, you drank. Where did the wine come from? It smells like this." Xiao Se immediately came to the cell where Lei Wujie was, and opened the cell door with the key.
"By the way, there is another brother here. He was just imprisoned next door. He gave me the wine. I promised to get him out together, but he didn't take it away just now." Lei Wujie said and walked out of the cell.
"You are living a good life. You still have wine to drink in prison, but where did he get the wine?" Wu Xin asked immediately.
At this time, Xiao Se walked to the cell next to Lei Wujie with a thoughtful look on his face, picked up the cup on the table inside, and smelled it.
"Interesting, in the cell of the horse thief, such a precious wine cup can be used." Looking at the green wine cup in Xiao Se's hand, Shen Fei couldn't help laughing, but this wine cup looked very valuable.
"He raised a monkey, and the wine was stolen by his monkey for him." Lei Wujie still didn't react.
"You, you were cheated and still helped him count money. If his monkey is so powerful, it can steal the key and escape." Wuxin reacted immediately.
"That's right." Lei Wujie finally reacted.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. Now is the time to take real action." Wuxin said in a deep voice.
"Sure enough, your purpose is this. Otherwise, with your martial arts, if you had helped before, this stupid boy would not have been caught. You watched him being caught, and then you came to save him, just to come here, what do you want to do?" Xiao Se asked the doubts in his heart. Wuxin had another purpose, he had guessed it a long time ago, but he didn't know what it was.
"You will know later." Wuxin then said his purpose. His purpose was actually very simple, which was to create chaos. What they were going to do next was also simple, which was to set fire.
"It's on fire, it's on fire." Soon after, the horse thieves' camp was on fire everywhere, and the horse thieves immediately started to put out the fire everywhere. But at this time, all the horses in the stables where the horse thieves kept their horses ran out, so the scene became even more chaotic. Some horse thieves wanted to catch horses, and some wanted to put out the fire. In the chaos, not many people noticed that four figures rode horses and left among the horses running around.
"Wuxin from Hanshui Temple, come to visit, longbow chasing wings, one hundred ghosts parade at night." When the four were about to leave, Wuxin's voice suddenly sounded above the camp.
"Sure enough, there are a lot of people around, no wonder Wuxin thought of using this method."
Mixed in with the fleeing horses, Shen Fei saw a lot of people who were frightened by these horses. These people were the real reason why Wuxin let Lei Wujie be captured. Wuxin obviously used this chaos to get rid of these people. With this chaos, these people will definitely need a lot of time to confirm Wuxin's movement, and this time is enough for Wuxin.
"Khotan, Dafanyin Temple."
The four people galloped on their horses. At first, they mixed in the herd of horses. After running wildly for a while, they changed direction and walked towards Wuxin's destination, which was the Dafanyin Temple of Khotan.
There are many countries in this world. There are 32 Buddhist countries in the Western Regions. Of course, the area of these countries is not large, and some countries even have only one city.
In this world, there are only two truly powerful countries, namely Beili and Nanjue. The former Western Chu was destroyed decades ago. Due to its geographical location, the territory occupied by Beili is called the Central Plains.
"Monk, what are you going there for?" Lei Wujie immediately began to ask Wuxin.
"Although Yutian is only a small country, the Great Brahma Sound Temple is not simple. It is said that when the Demon Cult went eastward, the leader of the Demon Cult, Ye Dingzhi, once went to the Great Brahma Sound Temple to ask about the Heavenly Dao." Xiao Se began his popular science time again. The actual situation of the Demon Cult's Eastern Expedition was much more complicated than what Xiao Se said. It was not just a matter of the rivers and lakes, but also involved matters in the court.
"Oh, you know it very well." Wuxin said lightly.
"Please, this is not a secret of the rivers and lakes. Many people know it." Xiao Se said slowly.
"Then monk, you are going to the Great Brahma Sound Temple to ask for the Heavenly Dao." Lei Wujie immediately asked curiously.
"It's just to meet an old friend. I should call him uncle. It's all about the grudges from the previous life." Wuxin sighed softly.
"The Demon Cult's Eastern Expedition, the martial arts world back then must have been very exciting." Shen Fei suddenly said. Hearing Xiao Se mention the Demon Cult's Eastern Expedition, he couldn't help but imagine it. After all, there were almost more than a hundred masters of the Free and Easy Heaven Realm participating in it. In Shen Fei's judgment, the Free and Easy Heaven Realm was about the same as the Grandmaster of the Tang Dynasty, which means there were more than a hundred Grandmasters. Think about how many Grandmasters there were in the Tang Dynasty.
According to Shen Fei's guess, the Divine Wandering Mysterious Realm should be the strength of the Broken Void level. Of course, it can also be replaced with another word to describe it, that is, the Feathered Realm.
"Yes, it's a pity that I didn't catch up with that time." Lei Wujie nodded in agreement.
"Silly boy, that was not a good time. The martial arts world at that time was indeed very exciting, but many people died." Xiao Shede's words made the atmosphere at the scene serious all of a sudden, and Lei Wujie also fell silent.
It is said that the heroes of the Jianghu are full of heroic spirit, but this heroic spirit is brought by blood. What happened to Wuxin is also the consequence of what happened back then. There is also Lei Qianhu, one of the four heroes of the Lei family. He has never left the Lei family. In that battle, although he killed the enemy, he was also seriously injured and has been suffering from injuries for many years.
"Okay, if you want to go to Yutian, you should hurry up, otherwise you may have to sleep outdoors."
After Shen Fei spoke, the four of them immediately rode their horses again, but as they walked, Shen Fei found that something was wrong with the road.
"Are you sure this is the road to Yutian?" Shen Fei first reined in his horse and stopped.
"It is a bit strange. Although Yutian is not a big country, it also has trade with Beili. Not to mention that there are endless merchants coming and going, but the pipeline should not be like this." Wuxin also stopped immediately.
"Yes, we have been walking for most of the day, and we didn't see a single pedestrian on the road. What's going on?" Lei Wujie said with a look of sudden enlightenment.
"Could it be that something happened in Khotan?" Wuxin said thoughtfully.
"I haven't heard of it. Could it be that the official road has been changed?" Lei Wujie said.
"Ah." Shen Fei looked around and sighed softly.
"You little idiot, you think the official road is a river, and it has been changed. And you can see that it looks like an official road here and there. Monk, you don't know the way, do you?" Xiao Se said helplessly.
"But I've seen the map. There is only one official road in Khotan nearby, but we have been following the road." Wu Xin said.
"Are you looking at this road? Does it look like an official road?" Xiao Se pointed at the surroundings. When his fingers moved, many crows flew away.
"This is what Shen Fei sighed before. The official roads of this era, like modern national roads, are easy to distinguish. Just look at the ruts. After all, there are no tires in this era.
"Hey, there is an inn over there. Let's go ask for directions." Lei Wujie used Qinggong to reach the raised rock on one side and looked around. Then the group immediately started following the direction Lei Wujie pointed. go ahead.
"Hey, is anyone there?" The four of them arrived in front of the inn and immediately dismounted. Lei Wujie took the lead and walked into the courtyard where the inn was located.
"This is an inn in Beili. You must have gone to Khotan, and you have not turned back." Xiao Se said, pointing to the writing on the signboard on the bamboo pole erected in the inn yard.
"We may have taken the wrong road, but the direction is definitely correct. We were heading west, so how could we go back to Beili?" Wu Xin obviously didn't believe that he had taken the wrong road, but what he said made sense and the direction was correct. That's right, to the west.
"It seems like no one is here." At this time, Lei Wujie walked out of the inn.
"This place is so inaccessible, why is there an inn?" Wu Xin looked around with curiosity.
"That's why it was abandoned." Lei Wujie said casually.
"This is the mark." At this moment, Shen Fei noticed something was wrong with Xiao Se's situation. He clenched his fist tightly in the dark. Then Shen Fei glanced around and immediately found on the table not far in front of Xiao Se. There is a mark.
"Something's not right here, we'd better get on the road as soon as possible." Wu Xin said after entering the inn.
"Xiao Se, Xiao Se, what's wrong with you? You're in a daze." At this time, Lei Wujie also discovered that Xiao Se was in a daze.
"What is this?" Lei Wujie came behind Xiao Se and saw the mark.
"This store is really lazy and doesn't even clean the table." At this moment, Wu Xin suddenly pressed his left hand on the mark. When he picked it up, the mark on the table was gone.
"It looks like it might rain today. I think we should rest here at night." Wu Xin looked at Xiao Se and said slowly.
"Hey, monk, didn't you just say you wanted to get on your way quickly?" Lei Wujie asked immediately.
"I changed my mind." Wu Xin said slowly.
"Xiao Se, where are you Shen Fei?"
"Just stay here for one night, I have no objection." Xiao Se said and immediately stood up and walked to the side.
"I don't have any objection, but what about food? Fortunately, we can say that there is nothing we can do about these horses." With their strength, there will naturally be no shortage of food, but the horse's fodder is not enough.
"Then let them go." Wu Xin said, and then the four horses were immediately let go. After that, Shen Fei, Wu Xin, and Lei Wujie began to prepare food. Only Xiao Se sat there in a daze.
"What is this? It's quite delicious." In the courtyard of the inn, a group of people set up a pot with firewood burning underneath. Lei Wujie sandwiched the fungi inside and nodded.
